The amp gauge will drop when I turn on headlights, brake lights, and fluctuates with turn signals the way it always has. But it does not move past 12 o'clock and doesn't react at all to throttle. Even when it drops below 12 o'clock with lights and such on, it does not move up at all with increased RPM.
Usually I'd think this is a gauge issue of some kind. But it did not do that before at all. And now my windshield wipers work extremely strangely. Usually will not react when I use switch. Will sometimes turn on minutes late. When they do work, they stutter hard. So obviously some electrical issue just appeared out of nowhere.
I replaced timing chain and water pump. Possible that I bumped a wire somewhere in engine bay, but I cannot for the life of me figure out which one. Could voltage regulator have gone bad, as well? It's mechanical.
Thoughts?
